By releasing a one-minute, thirty-second teaser for his next Atlee movie Jawan on Friday, Shah Rukh Khan put an end to all rumors. The trailer reveals Shah Rukh’s new appearance for the eagerly anticipated movie and confirms the title of the movie. An image of a deserted outpost and a man whistling a threatening melody are shown in the teaser’s opening scene. He covers his face with ragged bandages, revealing himself to be Khan’s persona. Next to him, there is a vintage television, and a tent conceals a chest of munitions. A woman exclaims, “Good to go, chief,” as a walkie-talkie buzzes into life. The persona of Khan—name let’s him Jawan—growls back and cackles, “Ready.”
“Jawan” has something in it for everyone, be it actions, emotions, or drama, all intertwined into create a visual extravaganza, said filmmaker Atlee, who is renowned for directing a run of popular blockbuster movies in the south, including “Raja Rani,” “Theri,” “Mersal,” and “Bigil,” to mention a few. Who better to deliver it than Shah Rukh Khan himself, delivered in a way that has never been done before? I want to give the public an extraordinary experience that they can all enjoy. The title of the movie then flashes on screen in a variety of languages. With the announcement of Jawan, Shah Rukh Khan is now prepared to offer viewers and his fans to three films in 2019: Jawan, Pathaan, and Dunki.
